It’s hard to believe it but it’s already time to begin to think about the 2025-2026 school year!
Here are some important dates to mark on your calendars:
Transfer Requests - beginning on February 1st at 8:00 am, we will accept transfer requests for students who live in the Poway Unified boundaries and would like to attend a different Poway school. This includes incoming siblings of current students, as well as students who have not yet enrolled. Transfer requests can be made on the Poway Unified website by clicking THIS link. The transfer window closes on March 31st at 5:00 pm.
Continuing Student Registration - from February 28 - March 31st, all parents whose current students will continue in Poway Unified for the 2025-26 school year need to complete online continuing registration. Look for more information coming soon.
New Student Enrollment - beginning on April 1st at 8:00 am, new student enrollment opens on the Poway Unified website. We are excited to welcome our new students!
Our district has already begun planning for the 2025-2026 school year! In an effort to help us provide the most accurate information about the number of students who will be returning next year, please complete THE SURVEY LINKED HERE no later than Sunday, January 26, 2025. This will provide us with the number of returning students as well as those who will be leaving Los Peñasquitos Elementary and will ensure that your child(ren) is enrolled correctly for the 2025-2026 school year. Please submit one form per student.
Families do not need to complete the form for current 5th-grade students because they will be automatically enrolled in 6th-grade at their school of residence. This is NOT considered continuing student registration. Continuing student registration will take place February 28th - March 31st and needs to be completed for ALL students enrolled in PUSD for the 2024-2025 school year. Visit PUSD Continuing Student Registration for more information.
UPDATE: Well done LPES runners, who have run a total of 2,760 laps this year! December prizes for Running Club participants have been distributed. Each token prize received by students represents 1 mile (5 laps).
We are looking forward to seeing who the top runners are for the month of December, as well as awarding the Golden Shoes at Friday Flag on January 24th!
Thank you to our volunteers! If you are available on a Thursday, please come support the Running Club by signing up here: https://evite.me/Mb9VrzkJ5s
LPES Science Fair!
We are excited to announce that Los Pen will be hosting its very first Science Fair this Spring! Projects may be submitted by students in grades 3rd, 4th, and 5th. All students are welcome to attend the Science Fair in the MPR to view the projects. More details will be coming.
Project proposals will open after Winter Break and will be due in February, so start thinking about your science project ideas now!
